Prairie Trail Scenic Byway

History, Heritage, & Museums

This byway is wholly immersed in history. The community of Lindsborg, the Swedish Capital of Kansas, has a rich history dating back to the original settlers from Sweden, which can be found at the Lindsborg Old Mill & Swedish Heritage Museum. You can also enjoy the iconic McPherson Museum & Arts Foundation and McPherson Opera House. Also in the area is the city of Ellsworth, an old town of the wild west that was once called “The wickedest Castletown in Kansas.” 

Interested in rock formations that are over 100 million years old? Check out Mushroom Rock State Park near Marquette.
